I think we've fairly well established that if nothing else D7100 would have to have better, even far better resolution, but these tests are very confusing when it comes to noise. D7000 seems to hold a slight edge in jpg noise, while in raw D7100 seems to hold a large advantage. If this makes any sense, I do not know. I hope some of the more credible sites have their test results soon, because for myself, all this conflicting evidence is getting tedious.
